As always, you have to look at what the PTF was fixing to see if that
problem is worse than the PE.  In this case you have to go back in the
chain to OA10292 - which was a timing issue.

FWIW, I have 1.8 running on LPARs that run the utilities that David
was having problems with.   I don't have UA26500 applied because 
holddata kept me from doing so and (luckily) it wasn't applied and
accepted with my ServerPac like it was with David.  I have been
burned by that exact situation with this upgrade and I really hope
I can talk about this at SHARE with some of the IBM-ers.  

According to SMP/E - IGG0201B and IGG0201X are at base on my
system, so to answer your question specifically, I think you are 
okay in regards to this particular issue if you restore UA26500.
Of course, YMMV.
